From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

Apartment 7F offers an unusually generous footprint for a one-bedroom, with more than 900 square feet and a flexible layout that can easily accommodate a second bedroom, home office, or nursery. The apartment opens through a proper entry foyer, creating a welcome sense of separation before arriving at the expansive living and dining room. With excellent proportions and large windows, the space feels bright, comfortable, and remarkably quiet. There is ample room for distinct living, dining, and work areas without compromising the openness of the floor plan. A windowed kitchen provides abundant cabinetry, generous counter space, and a practical layout for everyday cooking. Adjacent to the main living area, a flexible bonus room adds another dimension to the home and can be configured as a second bedroom, nursery, office, or guest room depending on your needs. The primary bedroom is exceptionally spacious, easily accommodating a California king bed along with additional furniture. Excellent closet space and large windows complete the room, while hardwood floors, high beamed ceilings, and through-the-wall air conditioning add character and comfort throughout the residence. Located in the heart of the Upper East Side, 215 East 79th Street puts some of the neighborhood's best restaurants, shops, museums, parks, and transportation within easy reach. The building is a full-service cooperative with a 24-hour doorman, live-in resident manager, laundry facilities, storage, and bike room. A beautifully landscaped roof deck offers sweeping city views and a peaceful setting for relaxing or entertaining. The building is pet-friendly and permits pied-a-terres and guarantors. There is a 1.5% flip tax. With its substantial proportions, adaptable floor plan, and quiet setting, Apartment 7F offers the space to live comfortably today with the flexibility to evolve over time.
